- Data suggest that macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) and d-dopachrome tautomerase (d-DT) act cooperatively to inhibit steady-state phosphorylation and activation of AMPK in LKB1 wild type and LKB1 mutant non-small cell lung carcinomas cells. (cusabio.com)
- The vestigial enzyme D-dopachrome tautomerase protects the heart against ischemic injury. (uni-koeln.de)
- Researchers identified a cytokine, called macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF), along with its related protein, D-dopachrome tautomerase (D-DT), which are associated with progressive MS. These cytokines worsen the disease by increasing inflammation within the central nervous system. (neurosciencenews.com)
